The Second Irish Famine Will Be ‘Green’

With kids going hungry, Gov wants to cull 10% of Ireland's cattle for 'climate targets'.

Environmentalism is just genocide misspelled.

For Nuala O’Connor, a chef at a Barnardos centre in Dublin, food poverty in a young child is sometimes less about what they look like, and more about what they do.

“Sometimes you just know by looking at them, that they are not getting what they need,” she said. “Then we have had children over time [who are] literally ravenous, literally taking it with their hands, they can’t get enough of it into their mouths and can’t get it in quick enough.

Children are hungry. Time to get rid of the meat. Maybe if they’re hungry enough, they’ll eat more environmentally friendly bugs.

Up to 65,000 dairy cows may have to be removed from the national herd every year for three years at a cost of €200m if the farming sector is to meet its climate targets.

Minister for Agriculture Charlie McConalogue said earlier this year that his Department was considering the option of a voluntary dairy reduction scheme, that 2022 would be a reference year and it was his intention to start the scheme in 2023.

To address the gap to target, Department officials believe 10pc of the livestock herd would need to be displaced by other activities over the coming years, which is the equivalent of approximately 740,000 animals.

It says, based on the latest data, the suckler herd is already at this level of reduction and when its followers (calves/stores) are included, this would bring the sector closer to compliance with the first carbon budget period, while certainly ensuring compliance with the second carbon budget. “The suckler herd will reach its own equilibrium,” it said.

Sounds like the English have come up with a novel new way to get rid of the Irish.

Except this time I fear they won’t have an America to come to, and it won’t just be an Irish famine. They’re doing this in Netherlands already, and Kerry just declared war on farms here

Time to revive Swift’s A Modest Proposal

Except this time it is probably under serious consideration by government bureaucrats on both sides of the Atlantic. After all we kill thousands of children annually.

How many climate goals can we meet by culling 10% of State Bureaucrats per year?

The end of fossil fuels is the end of Western. The ability to turn heat into work started the Industrial Revolution, be it for power generation or chemical processes. Without it, we would be back in the Middle Ages.

They are purposely starving people to death, and the people are not really fighting back.
